#24 Little Blog on the Prarie by Cathleen Bell

Thirteen year old Gen is being forced to spend her summer vacation at "Camp Frontier", a living history camp set in the 1890's. Growing her own vegetables, milking the cows and being forced to give up every modern convenience (including indoor plumbing) has Gen losing it. She is keeping her sanity by texting her friends on the cell phone she managed to sneak in to camp. She could never imagine the trouble that this is going to cause... I really liked this book. I loved the realistic portrayal of life in the 1890's from someone who is used to today's modern way of life. The characters were funny and the story was very enjoyable. I will definitely be recommending this one. 4 out of 5 stars.
